Self Improvement | Inspirational Stories and the Kryptonite Strategy ...

By Lance Winslow -

Over the years, many individuals have called me an inspirational character in their lives. I always thought that was interesting, and perhaps some of it is not by accident, at least not while I was in business. You see, I was a franchisor, and I did spend a good amount of time motivating and inspiring our team to win in the marketplace, increase market share, and give the best possible customer service. Sometimes the economy was tough, and we had to work extra hard and occasionally, the light at the end of the tunnel was not always there. Okay so, let?s talk about this for second shall we?

I?ve always explained to my team that adversity builds character, and the more you go through in life, the better you get at tackling the problems ahead, and the more fearless you get as you do it. You get to a point where you trust yourself, because you have been through worse, and this is nothing compared to what you?ve already done. It?s hard to explain this to the average person who is looking at a brick wall in front of them, or some calamity that is happened in their lives. Nevertheless, these are the very individuals who need the inspirational input, and they need it now.

Sometimes, it makes sense to slightly exaggerate the hardships you?ve gone through to help inspire those who are going through their own hardships presently. In fact, whatever hardship you explain must actually be more difficult than the one they?re going through. Often people who are complaining will tell you of their own situation, and some of these situations are quite dire, things that most of us will never have happen to us personally. Those of us that have had the most adversity in our lives, and have overcome them, seem to have a different outlook on life, and are inherently inspirational to others.

I would submit to you that if you are trying to motivate and inspire others that you have to come clean with the adversity you?ve had, the challenges you?ve been through, and the kryptonite which you have overcome. In fact, it is that kryptonite that becomes the most compelling component of your inspirational stories as you help turn around the mindset of those who have given up already, or are about to.

Sometimes people just need a little bit of inspiration to keep going, they just need to go a little farther, and not give up, because they are almost there, even though they can?t see that light at the end of that tunnel presently, you need to show them that light is on and boy is it bright outside. Indeed I hope you will please consider all this and think on it.
